Stores Close Wednes 
day Afternoon. 


Seite! 


A petition has been circulated 
by the officers of the Ist. and 2nd 
Wards M.1, A. associations for 
the purpose of getting the stores 
to close a half day on Wednesday 
during the summer months, 

In our sister towns this has 
aliready been accomplished and 
it would at least be as fair for one 
as another if all our stores closed 
and if the customers knew about 
it there would be no money or 
trade lost, 

Such a movement is in accord- 
ance with laws of the church and 
laws of nature, there are many 
little benifits to be derived from 
such a movement and no loss 
i€ all remain together. 

Following is a copy of the 
petition signed by nearly all of 
the merchants. 


PETITION. 


In accordance witha resolution 
passed, in M. I. A. Convention 
1912, Thatthe M.I.A. of the 
Taylor Stake, would use their 
influence, to obtain a half holi- 
day each week, during June, July 
and August. That we may use 
that half day, for recreation, ins 


stead of using Sunday, for that 
purpose. 

To further this cause, we the 
officers of the M.I. A. of Ray- 


mond, here by petition Merchant 
of said town,to close their places 


febutintes at #20’clock, each 
Wednesday during the said 
months. Except when a holiday 


comes during the week. 
Trusting we may receive your 
hearty support in this cause.

BY SPECIAL 
MESSENGER 


An Errand That Had Unex- 
pected Results. 


—_—— 


By WARING MITCHELL. 


On that certain Tuesday morning 
when Colonel Graves got ready to start 
for the city from his country place he 
said to his daughter Winnie: 

“It is possible that I may want those 
Mexican bonds this afternoon, and here 


is the key of the safe. If 1 have to 
have them I will send you a note by a 
special messenger.” 

The colonel was something of a law- 
yer, speculator and broker, and Miss 
Winnie was his nineteen-yenr-old 
daughter. She acted as bis amannensis 
at home and was pretty familiar with 
his business transactions, The bonds 
spoken of had a face value of $20,000, 
but of late had been rather wabbly in 
the market and had caused the colonel 
considerable anxiety. At 1 o’clock that 
afternoon he wanted the bonds and 
telephoned his daughter to that effect, 
saying that he would send a messen- 
ger. Instead of sending a boy from the 
regular service, he stepped into the 
office of Jones next door and said: 

“Jones, | want a trusty fellow to run 
out to my bouse and bring me back 
some bonds. Haven’t | noticed a young 
man around bere?” 

“Yes. He's a nephew of mine. He's 
out now, but write a line and I'll send 
him when he returns. He ought to go 
out to East Park and back in an hour.” 

The colonel wrote a line to Miss Win- 
nie to deliver the bonds to bearer and 
then went out on “the street” on busi- 
ness. Fifteen minutes later Jones’ 
nephew was making for the Grand 
Central station as fast as the express 
in the subway would carry him, 

Jones badiPt given the young man’s 
biography, bunt it may be stated that 
his name was Vincent Gray, his age 
twenty-two, and he was in the office 
of his uncle to learn the devious ways 
of Wall street before setting up in bust- 


ness for himself on the comfortable | 


fortune left him by a deceased aunt 
For a young man who expected to 
come in contact with bulls and bears 
and othe? animals, young Gray was 
very trustful of human nature. For in- 
stance, while his train was speeding 
along underneath the streets and he 
was hanging to a strap thinking of 
things financial a young man with 
ambitions leaned against him and 
picked his pocket without exciting the 
least suspicion. 

The light fingered youth found there 
only a cardcase and the letter to Miss 
Winnie, but they were sufficient to 
bring about several unlooked for re- 
sults. He passed into another car and 
opened and read the letter, and he saw 
the golden opportunity he had been 
long looking for. In the cardcase were 
two or three dollar bills. The thief had 
a right to infer that his victim had no 
more money about him. He likewise 
had a right to infer that young Gray 
could not produce the wherewithal to 
‘buy a ticket for East Park. The fare 
was only 20 cents, but without it a 
man is as badly off as if the sum 
were $5 

There was a train ready to leave. 
The thief bought his ticket and got 
aboard. Vincent Gray stood at the 
ticket window and fussed and fumbled 
and was left. His cardcase and money 
were gone, and when he found that the 
letter had also taken wings he realized 
that he was in trouble. He hadn't 
even a nickel to get back to the office. 
He hadn't the wherewithal to tele 
phone to his uncle Jones in New street, 
and after wasting fifteen minutes try- 
ing to figure out the problem he made 
haste to a pawnshop, where he put 
down his watch for $5, 

The next train to East Park was ten 


minutes late in starting and the same | 


in reaching the Park, so there were in 
all fifty minutes lost. The young man 
bud not suspected that he was the vie- 
tim of a pickpocket, but supposed he 
had lost his property in the jam while 
boarding the car. He had been told 
that a telephone message would pre- 
cede him, and he bad remembered the 
address. Therefore be did not worry 
s0 wuch over the loss of the tetter. It 
was only when he came face to face 
with Winnie Graves and stated his er- 
rand and saw her look uf surprise and 
distrust that he realized the situation. 

“Why, sir,” she replied, "those bonds 
were delivered to a messenger more 
than balf an bour ago.” 

“But | was sent for them and was 
delayed.” 

“If you were sent for them, you 
must have a line from my father.” 

“I—1 had a line, but unfortunately I 
lost it, together with my money. My 
name is Vincent Gray, and | am tp the 
office of Ezra Jones, in the same build- 
ing with your father. | am afraid that 
some rascal found the lost letter and 
has taken advantage of it” 

“And | am afraid that another ras- 
cal is trying to do the same thing!” 
exclaimed Miss Winnie's Aunt Ruth, 
who was at the béad of the house and 
who bad entered the library just in 
time to hear the young man’s words. 

“But, madam, you surely can't think 
that I"— 

“I can think what I please, sir. Can 
you imagine we were idiotic enough to 
give up those bonds without a written 
order from Colonel Graves?” 

“Bat whoever presented that order 
was an Imposter.” 

“Perhaps so, and perhaps it ts the 
imposter who is here now. 


go to the tetephone and esk your fa- 

ther the name of the messenger he 

sent. He wouldn't have sent Tom, 

Dick or Harry on such an important 

errand. Young man, sit down here un- 

til we find out the truth of this mat- 
ter.” 

The girl went to the telephone, and 
bey young man sat down with visions 
| of policemen and prison bars passing 
before his eyes. The aunt took a seat 
| directly in front of him and stared at 
, him in a cold, cruel way—a way that 

gave him to understand that she would 
let no guilty man escape. After three 
| or four minutes Winnie returned to the 
| room to say: 

“That's always the way. Central 
tells me that the line into the city is 
crossed or something and it may be an 
hour or more before they find out the 
trouble and remedy it.” 

“Then I will go back and tell your fa-_ 
ther the situation,” said Mr. Gray, 
“Some sharper has the bonds, and the — 
police should be notified at once.” 

“You will sit right here until that 
telephone wire is in working order!” 
announced Aunt Ruth, “There are 
men about the place, and we have dugs 
and guns, and if you try to run away 
it will be the worse for you. Winnie, | 
notify the coachman that we bave a 
_ suspicious character in the house.” 
| “She needn't do anything of the sort, 
I will sit here until you have solved the | 
mystery. I am to blame for losing the , 
letter, but if the bonds are not recov- 
ered it will not be my fault.” 

“He doesn't look like a suspicious 
person,” whispered Winnie to ber aunt, 
but In tones loud enough so that be 
caught the words and turned red 
again. 

“He may not to you, who can’t tell a | 
robber from a church deacon. But be 
does to me, and bere be shall stay until 
' we know all about it. You sit down in 
the ball and wait for the telephone, 
and I'll keep hin under my eyes.” 

Aunt Ruth leaned back in her chair, 
folded her arms, compressed ber lips 
and fastened her eyes on Mr. Gray, 
and bad be been a bunko man of ten 
years’ standing he must bave been dis- 
concerted. As it was, he conghed aud> 
blushed and bitched around and cross- 
ed and recrossed his legs. When the | 
aunt broke the silence it was to impart 
| no cheerful information, What she 
said was: 

“It makes you squirm to realize that 
you've reached the ead of your rope at 
last, but you'll squirm more still when 
the judge pronounces seutence. While 
I pity your poor wother, | bope you'll 
get at least ten years.” 

Mr. Gray made no reply. He couldn't 
find words. Abvut every ten minutes 
for the next hour he received a brief, 
vigorous lecture until be was almost) 
worked up to the pvint where be, 
thought of jumping through a window | 
and taking bis chances, when a mans 
step was beard. There was an “Ob, 
papa!” from Miss Winnie in the ball, | 
and Colonel Graves stalked in to ex- | 
claim: 

“What in the devil is the mitter> 
bere?” | 

“There be sits! replied Annt Ruth > 
as she pointed to the culprit. 

It took about ten minutes to unravel 
things—that is, to establish Vincent | 
Gray’s identity. fortunatety by this 
| time the telephone was working, and 
| fortunately Mr. Jones was in his office. 
| It took tive minutes more to discover 
| that Winnie bad given the false mes- 
| senger Honduras instead of Mexican 
bonds and that the colonel was simply 
relieved of sume waste paper. 

When it came to apologies and invit- 
ing Mr. Gray to forgive and forget and 
stay to dinner, perhaps a full quarter 
of an hour was consumed, but it Is not. 
on record that Mr. Gray regarded the 
time as thrown away. 

Now when the colonel smiles and 
| throws out hints at his prospective 

son-in-law Miss Winnie blusbes and 

protests. Annt Ruth assumes one of 
| her sweetest looks and says: 

“1 don't say I shall leave when he 
becomes one of the family, but | do 
say that | sball always lock up my 
jewelry when I go to bed and lock and 
bolt the door!”

On London Surface Lines. 

London tramway men seem to be de 
veloping the smart answer habit, says 
the Manchester Guardian. for exam | 
ple, a correspondent overheard this the | 
| other day: 
On the front of the tram the indica. 
| tor ghowed “Piccadilly,” but the route 
outlined on the side of the car showed 
that it was the usual Albert square 
service. 

“Are you going to Albert square?” a 
lady asked. . 

“No, missus; Piccadilly,” was the re 
ply. 

“Oh, but the side indicator says Al- 
bert square.” 

“Perhaps so, missus, but we don't go_ 
sideways.” 

Another correspondent reports a sim- 
ilar case; 

Passenger (to conductork—Do you 
stop outside Affleck & Milue’s? 

Conductor—Yes, miss; they won't let 
us go inside. 


A Club Kick, 

The house committee of a New York 
club recently received this unique com. 
plaint: 

“| bave the honor to inform you that 
|] Junched at the club this afternoon | 
and bad as my guests three gentlemen, 
all well known gourmets. Among oth- 
er things an omelet was served. It con- 
tained only three flies. As an old mem- 
ber of the club, jealous of its reputa- 
tion, | naturally found this very em- 
barrassing, as, in order to make an 
equitable division of the omelet it was 
necessary either to divide a fiy—a nice ' 
bit of carving, as you must concede— 
or forego a fly myself. I beg to sug- 
gest that in the future, when an ome 
let is served for four persons, It should

SKOOKUM JIM, 


Stefansson Explains His Strictures He Is a Wise Old Man and a Wealthy 


on Eskimo Question. 

The chapter opened by Christopher 
Columbus in 1492 is about to be closed 
if, Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the Cana- 
dian explorer, if his forthcoming ex- 
pedition to the north works out ac 
cording to schedule. Said Dr. Stefans- 
son recently: “If I succeed in dis 
covering the unknown land lying to, 
the north of the Dominion within the 
Arctic circle, and I have every hope 
of success, the last area of unexplor- 
ed land on the face of the globe will 
have been discovered.” 

Dr. Stefansson has been a close stu- 
dent of the Eskimo and Northern In-, 
dian, and is not at all satisfied with, 
the work the missionaries are doing 
In fact, the explorer, 
holds the opinion that the efforts of 
the missionaries to civilize them must 
e blamed to a great extent for the 
act that these races are fast dying 
out. 

“T have no intention of minimizing 
the work of missionaries and mis- 
sions, and I am in general sympathy 
with the purpose of the missions,” 
said the traveler. 

“While missionaries are undoubted- 
ly sincere, there are certain details of 
their methods which are clearly at 


fault, and I fear that the reason is | 


that the mission boards at home do 
not fully realize the conditions exist- 
ing among the natives of the frozen 
north. While the missionaries are 
doing much good among tue Eskimos 
they are also doing some_ positive 
harm. The harm should be reme- 
died. In my experience of mission- 
aries, they all do what they consider 
best for the spiritual welfare of the 


| people, and insofar they are no doubt 


carrying out exactly the intentions of 
the mission boards. But when it 
comes to the physical welfare of the 
people, then some of the missionar- 
ies, although they have the kindest 
possible hearts, are doing much less 
good than any ordinary non-medical 
man should be expected to do if he 
were properly instructed by the board 
under which he is working. In order 
words, I feel sure that if there were 
on the mission boards competent 
medical men to map out the medical 
program of the missionaries, not 380 
much with regard to the treatment of 
diseases which already exist, as to

One Now. 


Skookum Jim is a wise old red man, 
For more years than he can number 
he has lived on the K.isilano Re- 
serve, on the busy Vancouver water- 
front. The passing years have trans- 
formed the scese he knew as a youth 
and as a man grown. They have 
mowed the forest from the hillside 
and planted in its stead tall smoke- 
stacks and piles of apartment blocks. 
They have brought lines of glistening 
steel and snarling, busy sawmills to 
his clam-sown beach. They have 
driven fussy tugs with endless, end- 
less rafts of logs over the banks where 
the whiting used to teem. They have 
flung steel viaducts across his famil- 
iar creek. They have driven the head 


of Skookum Jim deep down between | 


his shoulders, and have added pha- 
lanx on phalanx of wrinkles to his 
brow. And through it all Jim has 
waited, and been the gainer for his 
waiting. Wrinkles the years hold in 
store for all, wealth they bring to 
many, but wisdom i, their gift to few. 
Sin three thy brought to Skookum 
Jim. 

Wisdom came to Jim a bit at a4 
time. He has been accumulating ‘t 
through many, many months. The 
wealth, however, came suddenly. Lo,

One day recently, for the first time 


in eight years, Jim went across to the | 
) city. 


His comrades of the reserve, 
some two dozen in number, went 
along, and they were led by “Hally” 
Alexander, whom all of them had 
known for years, into a downtown 
bank. There, in the vault, they were 
shown a pile of gold, as much as six 
men could carry. It woul! be theirs, 
they were told, the moment they quit 
the reserve for good. The pile of gold 
was worth well over a quarter of a 
million dollars—enough to pay $11,250

reserve 


There was some demurring 
at first. 


The younger men thought 
The representa- 
American railroad had of- 
twice as much Why 


fered them 


| should they take less than they could 


about to come, then the missionary | 
would do a great deal more than he | 


is doing now, for there are certain 
serious contagious diseases which the 
missionaries in their kind-hearted 
manner deplore, but which they are 


doing nothing intelligent to check. 


“For instance, many missionaries 
are encouraging both Indians and 
Eskimos in the north to cease living 
in tents and to build permanent 
houses, with the result that tuber- 
culosis is making terrible ravages 
among them. 
missionaries, however, who have done 
exactly the opposite of this. Mr. 


Marsh, the Church of England mis- | 


sionary at Hay River, on the Great 
Slave Lake, was one of the few whom 


| I know who seem to be thoroughly 


alive to the danger of allowing the 
natives to live in permanent houses, 
and he is doing all in his power to 
compel the Indians to revert to their 


' earlier habits of living in wigwams. 


“The Mission Boards leave too 
much to the personality of the men. 
If they have a good, wise man he 
does good, wise work on his own ini- 
tiative. If the man fails to be wise, 
then he is pretty much left to his 
own devices, and the results are not 
so desirable. I don’t want to commit 
myself at all as to which is the best 
but I do believe that 12 
Roman Catholic Church has a much 
better missionary organization than 
any of the others. Their work is along 
uniform lines.” 


“High Graders.” 


A departure from ordinary custom 
was made by the Ontario provincial 
police last year to counteract the 
“high graders,” who during the past 
few months exerted unwonted efforts 
to smuggle Northern Ontario ore in 
large amounts through to the U. 8. 
The Department has kept account of 
the weight seized by the constables 
in all parts and has recovered in all 
about 206 pounds, valued at $2,463, 
and producing 4,149 ounces of 
silver. 


Some very interesting methods were | 


resorted to by both men and women 
to bring the material in a crude state 
out of the region. Several used spe- 
cially constructed duck bags which 
fitted in a natural manner about the 
body, and when loaded merely added 
to the corpulence of the individual. 
One woman trusting to the female 
attire for protection concealed 80 
pounds in her skirts, but was inter- 
cepted before making good her es- 
cape. Another formed a metal belt of 
the silver ore suspended on strings, 
but shared the same fate. 


A Novel Charge. 


For the first time in Canada, it is 
said, a charge was laid the other day 
in Toronto which is not wathout con- 
siderable interest. It is termed ‘Con- 
spiring to compensate.” 

In January last Louis Siegel was 
arrested for stealing a large quantity 
of furs, and Abraham Panser went 
bail for him. 

It is now alleged that Panser was 
compensated for so doing, to the ex- 
tent of $25, and Nathan Shapiro, 
along with Louis Panser, are said to 
have negotiated the amount, 

Shapiro got a loan of a diamond 
pin, pawned it and then got some 


| more money from Louis Panser, with 


the ticket as security. 

All three are now charged with the 
conspiracy. 

There have been convictions in the 
old country on a similar count and 
it is on the English law that the preay 
ent charge is now made.

was signed. One day more on the old 
reserve and the Indians were to pack 
their belongings on a scow and be 
transferred, bes and baggage, up the 
-oast to Squamish. Their seventy 


acres of reserve, with its half mile of ; 


waterfront, was to go to the Province 
of British Columbia. 

It was all very curious and wonder- 
ful. Jim didn’t pretend to understand 
it, Far, far away to the south, they 
had told him, men were digging a 
great ditch, as wide as the Fraser 
and twice as long as the Inlet. It 
would bring ships to Vancouver— 
more in a week than come now in 


many months. And back in the moun- | 
tains other men were feverishly bor- | 


ing tunnels which would let a stream 
of grain down from the wheatfields to 
the ocean. The ships must be dock- 
ed and loaded. The grain must be 
stored and cleaned. Skookum Jim's 
reserve was needed for docks and 
tracks and elevator sites. He, being 
only a red mau, would have to move. 
His gold he could take or leave in 
the bank. Whatever he did with it, 
the white man expected to get it back 
soon. Then the white man would have 


both—the gold and the reserve. And

Upon which the members of the

FOR BETTER EGGS, 


Movement on Foot To 


Improve the 
Production and Quality. 

For many years eggs have been 
purchased by number without regard 
to quality. This is unfair to the 
farmer who marketa good clean fresh 
eggs. To pay as much for good as for 
bad eggs is but one way of encourag- 
ing carelessness in the handling cf 
this extremely perishable product. It 
is, in large measure the cause of the 

enormous loss which th: Canadian 
| eee trade now sustains—a loss or 
; Shrinkage varying between 15 to 20 
per cent., which means that for every 
thirty dozen cases marketed, there 
is a loss equivalent to the value of 
about five dozen eggs. 

This is a tremendous toll, and adds 
greatly to the cost of handling this 
product and has also the effect both 
| of reducing the price to the farmer 
and increasing the price to the con- 
sumer. It therefore, is evident that 
the greatest boon to those concerned 
in the production, handling and con- 
sumption of eggs would be to elimin- 
ate this loss. 

It has been long proven that the 
loss is entirely needless and could 
easily be overcome if the farmer and 
the handier would simply take better 
care of the product and get it to mar- 
| ket more frequently. Heretofore, bad 
eggs have commanded the same price 
| as good eggs. The question of quality 
has not been a consideration It, 
| therefore, is evident that so long as 
‘such an entirely antiquated and un- 
business-like system prevails there 
| can be little or no hope for any im- 
provement in the general quality cf 
| this product. Educational work alone 
| would be entirely ineffective. To rem- 
edy this most unhealthy condition of 
jthe trade, it becomes imperative to 
hold out some financial] inducement 
to the farmner and country dealer to 
place their eggs upon the market in 
as fresh a condition as possible. This 
can be done simply by paying more 
for good eggs than for inferior eggs 
} and paying nothing for any which are 
| absolutely bad and unfit for food 
Both the Ontario and Federal Gov- 
; ernments have been for some time 
strongly endeavoring to induce the 
egg dealers to change their system of 
} “case count” payment to that of 
“quality payment.” Quality payment 
which involves the 
consists of paying for each separate 
| grade according \> its real value. At 
recent meetings, which were held to 
consider this question 


| “quality pay- 
} ment” was not adopted but a step | 
in the right direction was taken. The 


dealers committed themselves to buy 
eggs on a loss off basis which means 
| that there will be no payment made 


for eggs which are bad and unfit for | 


consumption. 

This, indeed, will be welcome news 
to both the producer and consumer. 
By means of this measure production 
will be encouraged. The production 
and marketing of good eggs will be 


| . 

more profitable than formerly It 
| will also mean that following the 
| elimination of unnecessary joss 


through bad eggs and other unneces- 
sary charges against the cost of eggs, 
the consumer undoubtedly will get a 
cheaper article and one of better 
quality.

They were then placed in a heavy

'WHEN VACATION COMES 


STUDENTS HAVE A PENCHANS 
“FOR BACKWOODS JOBS. 


From the Time That the ‘Freshie” 
Hears of Wild Adventures In the 
Bush From His Sophomore Friend, 
Nothing Can Keep Him Out of the 
Back Country — Fraternities Find 
Jobs For Members. 


Convocation has brought the college 
year to a close, and over three thou- 
sand students have becn let loose from 
the University of Toronto, Ninety- 
five per cent. of them will scatter 
over Canada, holding down jobs and 
turning themselves into men. The dis- 
tinguishing feature of Canadia.. col- 
lege life is that the men and a large 
number of the women students either 
partially or wholly put themselves 
through. Whether wealthy or poor the 
popular thing to do is tue get a job 
for the vacation. 

Two things generally face students 
when spring comes round. They see 
a rough passage ahead of them 
through a labyrinth of examinations. 
Scarcely less important is the job fot 
the vacation. “What ar: you going 
to do next summer?’ This is the 
topic of the hour for a month or two 
before exam. time. The ‘‘schoolmen” 
discuss the question in their draught 
ing rooms, the meds. in their dissect 
ing room, the arts men in the library. 

The fraternity houses become em- 
ployment bureaus for the members— 
a striking contrast to the American 
Fraternity, where the Ippi Yi Kis are 
more likely to be arrangiig the sum 


mer resort that they will patronize 
during the vacation. Canadian frat. 
| men use their connections to land 


smooth jobs. The graduate members 
have influence in the fraternity coun- 
cils in proportion to their capability 
to furnish jobs, and they respond 
liberally. The fraternities usually 
look after their own members. 
rest of the students have to dig 
their ow? i they get them, too. 
They scatter themselves all over Can- 
ada. They find their way into many 
| different industries and knock down 
from five to fifty dollars a week. 
When the spoon-fed freshman gets 
| acclimatized he falls in line with the 
prevailing idea and begins to hunt up 
a job for the vacation. The job his 
friend Bill, a seasoned soph., had last 
; year, seems good to him. Bill was 
up north on a survey. He ate moose 
| meat, saw whisky-runners, shot rap 
ids, worked with Indians, and has a 
‘ first-class Ojibway vocabulary to 
make his tales more picturesque. The 
freshman hears this in the draught 


inbs ar 


room, in the dissecting room, in the 
library or in his frat. What these 
sophs. have been through makes @ 


| tremendous impression on him. ‘‘Hon- 
jest, manly toil’ 


never appeared to 
him in the same light before. He is 
probably up north now i: the thick 


of it. 

Then the junior comes back to his 
|leollege halis in the fall. He is an ex- 
jperienced superior being He hasn't 
|Imade himself round-shouldered pack- 
ing or pulling a chain. He sat in the 
shade all summer on the banks of s 
| big northern river, watching its black 
| waters passing on their way to Hud- 


son Bay. He smoked many pounds 
of Hudson Bay Co. tobacco and inci- 
dentally used up a lot of fly oil. He 
was fire-ranging for th Ontario 
Government. 

A job in the wilds is the most at 
tractive. Northern Ontario tales will 
earn a man 4 fine reputation am ngst 
his fellow-students The “call of 
the wilds’’ appeals especially to a 
city or town-bred — student These 
boys go where they get deep-chested 


and sun-burned via hard work and an 
open air life Moreover, tt is a 
good footbal] preliminary—an import 
ant consideration.

student from the country, how- 
has seen enough of the simple 
the bush at the back of his 


father’s hundred acres. He may work 
as a book agent or go out west and 
take a summer school, but ma- 
jority go back home and work on their 
farms, telling ange stor col- 
lege life wi ich make them heroes in

| A whole lot of the students take te 
the sea-faring life They ‘rush the 
| growler’ on our lake passenger boats, 
| School teaching is losing its grip as 
summer employment. The men can 
make more money at other things, and 
school teaching does not seem very 
exciting. The women students, how- 
ever, supply the west with a large 
number of teachers for the summer 
8 oola. 


You .ind very few Canadian college 
men going abroad in the summer, or 
dangling their heels in our summer 
resorts, telling fibs about college life, 
In this respect the Canadian univer 


sity presents a striking contrast to 
the English and American universi- 
| ties. The students at Oxford and 


Cambridge belong to the leisured class 


in Britain. Their examinations are 
held in the fall. They study and 
travel during the vacation They 
have no opportunity to work The 
American college students are of 
course more like ours. The poorer 
ones work of necessity. The majority 
do not. 


Vacation work is certainly a feature 
|} and a fine feature of Canadian col- 
lege life. The boys get a job and 
make no bones about it. It’s the 
proper thing to do. The sturdy inde 
| pendence of the Canadian student is 

characteristic, and it is this vacation 


work which produces _ this desirable 
| type. This more than anything else 
| turns the green freshman into the 


| worldly, independent soph., and pro- 
| duces graduates who are real men,—

SECRETS OF AERIAL WARFARE 


What Germany Is Doing to Get Supre- 
macy of Air 


Dreadnoughts of the alr will play as 
reat a part in deciding the issue of 
the next war as the Dreadonughts of 
the sea; and it is because they wish 
to impress this fact on the mind of 
the man in the street that certain peo- 
ple have been so loud in their denun- 
ciation of the War Offive for paying 
$90,000 for an airship three years ago, 
and afterwards making no practical 
Use of It. We may have a fleet of 
aeroplanes, they say, but we must also 
compete with France and Germany in 
the matter of airships, and judging 
from the extraordinary efforts which 
Germany is making at the present 
time to perfect her fleet of airships, it 
is obvious that she considers they are 
as essential as war vessels for the 
maintenance of her power. 

In the matter of airships, Germany 
at the present time easily stands first | 
in’the world. They possess twenty- | 
five dirigibles of the rigid type, and 
jby the end of the present year will | 
have thirty-two, And tt is signifi- 
cant that the Zeppelin Company, which 
how turns out an airship every three 
weeks hopes to be In a postition at the

NEURALGIA’S BURNING PAIN | PoRROWwING MONEY OW LAND 
~ CHECKED—THEN CURED Excellent System Worked Out by 


Farmers of Switzerland 


Swiss farmers find It comparative. 
ly easy to borrow money of the mort- 
gBege banks which exist in many of the 
cantons, 
ed by the farmer in placing a mort- 
Bage with the cantonal or state mort- 
gage banks is that he escapes the ne- 
cessity of repaying the principal of his 
mortgage in a single payment, and he 
is practically relieved from the danger 
of foreclosure according to arm and 
Iiome, 

The interest rate charged by the 
cantonal mortgage banks is about the 
same as that collected by other banks. 
For Instance, a farmer wishes to raise 
a loan of $10,000 on hig property. Ile 
seciires the money from the cantonal 
bank at 4 1-2 per cent. Ile could 
probably do as well for himself if he 
went to private sources, but here is 
where the cantonal banks help him 
jout. If he went to a private bank to 
borrow money at 4 1-2 pov ceat for a 
stated number of years, he would be 
requirea to pay that bank his interest 
each year and the full amoun. at the 
end of the term. 

With the cantonal bank he {s_ re- 
quired to pay each year, in addition to 
j his 41-2 per cent., 1 per cent. as am 
jortization. After the first payment he 
owes the bank $10,000 less 1 per cent 
Naturally the second y 
interest, not on the 
$9,000 
is still 5 1-2 per cent. of the $10,000. 
Fach vear, however, a larger portion of 
| this 5 1-2 per cent. goes to liquidate 
{the Ican In this way the farmer ul 
timately pays back the entire 
size bot-) without having been burdoned with
